HorseNet Horse Rescue

About HorseNet

HorseNet Horse Rescue (HNHR) is a 501(c)3 equine rescue & sanctuary with two locations in Maryland- New Windsor and Mount Airy.

HorseNet is a no-kill, anti-slaughter horse rescue that currently cares for about 100 horses.

HNHR is also 100% volunteer-run organization with no paid staff, so they’re always looking for new volunteers and donations!

Adopting A Horse

HorseNet has many lovable and beautiful horses currently available for adoption, both ridable & companion animals. Anyone in the state of Maryland or anyone that resides 2.5 hours away from their facilities are eligible to adopt. An adoption contract and appointments are needed before adopting any horse.

You can easily learn more about adopting and see movies of the available horses.

Sponsoring A Horse

All HorseNet horses are available for sponsorship. Sponsors receive a photo and history of their horse along with being acknowledged on the web site. Sponsors are also welcome to go to HorseNet and visit their horses. You do not have to live in the state of Maryland in order to sponsor a horse.
